9 Months: A Month by Month Guide to Pregnancy for the Family to Share
by Esther Van De Paal, Courtney Adamo
Age: Preschool-1st grade
A sweet and easily digestible (don't eat the baby!) book to share with older siblings to help explain the anatomical changes happening to their mommy during pregnancy. Although its strength lies in its brevity, this is also its weakness. It leaves out the many different paths an inutero baby may take to birth--in vitro fertilization, nonhetero families--or miscarriages. It does briefly mention home births but that is the only "alternative" it provides. Side notes or a 2 page spread on these alternatives would have been an easy solution, but this information is, unfortunately, left up to the parent to include.
Love the pictures and the simple presentation but it is not inclusive.
Update to come in order to provide alternate book suggestions.
